We booked a 3 night stay at this wonderful property and couldn’t have been happier! It was located in the heart of everything we wanted and navigating our way around was easy. The house was very clean and well maintained, and had everything we needed for our stay. The property manager had excellent communication with us the entire stay. We were there to attend our son’s graduation ceremony from Navy boot camp and visit. We highly recommend this property for families looking for a safe, clean accommodation while there.

Glenesha, is a wonderful host! We were in for Navy graduation first time in Illinois even, the house is out of the way of alot of noise and traffic. Easy to get in and out of drive and streets, felt like just being on a different block in my town really. The place was as listed under some touchups and remodeling or what not, so of course our luck we had a bit of a hiccup but our Host was very attentive and graceful. I would highly recommend Glenesha and her property especially after renos are complete, shes been very busy and we cant wait to see the final result! We thank her for her grace and allowance of staying in her home for our families treasured memories! Keep up the work we love what you have done with the place!

Our stay was wondering and the house is adorable. The location was convenient to the Naval base where our son is. We were there for his Navy bootcamp graduation. Nesha was absolutely wonderful and she made this trip to see our son that much better. If we come back, we hope her house is available!

Proximity to GL Recruitment Center

The proximity to Great Lakes Recruitment Center, Sarge’s Meet & Greet, restaurants, etc. is perfect. We were in town for our son’s boot camp graduation and knew we wanted more room to hang out than a typical hotel room would offer. It was great to be able to relax, watch movies, just hang out with our sailor for the precious two days we had. This place has location, location, location if you’re coming in for boot camp graduation.
